Abstract

The Varbitsa Balkan is part of the Eastern Stara Planina and offers beautiful nature, ancient forests, and water features. Its landscape is characterized by steep slopes, broad saddles, and deeply incised gorges. Varbitsa is a town located in northeastern Bulgaria, north of the Varbitsa Pass in the Stara Planina Mountains. Varbitsa is a small town blessed with magnificent natural resources that are ideal for the development of tourism. The Varbitsa Balkan Mountains boast rich biodiversity, protected within a Natura 2000 site, along with numerous beautiful river rapids, waterfalls, and the historic Varbitsa Pass, all of which are ideal for ecotourism, hiking, and recreation.
